Scheduling IoT Applications in Real-Time Control Groups

Yuri Andriaccio, Luca Abeni, Massimo Torquati · 2025

The recent evolution of IoT devices, coupled with the increasing interest in fog and edge computing, highlights that technologies traditionally developed to support real-time applications can also benefit other contexts, such as processing large volumes of data generated by IoT devices. In this paper, we show how to use a real-time control group scheduler to support data-processing applications based on the FastFlow framework. We first detail the design and implementation of the scheduler, then describe the application scenario considered. Our experimental evaluation confirms the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
